Asus Zenfone Laser:
It sports a 5.0-inch display and houses Snapdragon 410 series chipset, 2GB/3GB RAM and 16GB/32GB memory.
Key attribute of the new Asus Zenfone model is that it boasts a 13mp camera with an advanced value-added Laser auto-focus feature.
For the uninitiated, this laser-based auto-focus feature measures the distance between the subject and the camera using a laser beam enabling quick capture of good quality photos even under low-light conditions. LG G3 (2014) and G4 (2015) are the only tier-1 branded smartphones in the industry to house this feature.

As the name suggests, Zenfone Selfie's USP is its front camera. It boasts of a 13mp camera with f/2.2, 24mm wide angle , five-prism Largan lens, Toshiba 1/3.2-inch sensor, Dual LED real-tone flash, HDR and low-light selfie feature.
And on the rear-side, it comes equipped with equally superior 13mp camera with Laser auto-focus feature like we see in Zenfone Laser device. It also features a 64-bit class Snapdragon 615 Octa-core CPU, 2GB/3GB RAM, 16GB/32GB inbuilt memory and a 3,000 mAh battery.
